Anatoliy M. Filenkov

Anatoliy Maximovich Filenkov was the Constable of Anatevka, Ukraine under the Russian Empire. Filenkov was an Orthodox Christian and lived in the Christian section of the town, but he got along well with some of the inhabitants of the Jewish village. In 1905, however, he was ordered by Ivan R. Ruskikh to stage a "demonstration" (a pogrom) against the Jews, and his soldiers attacked a Jewish wedding. Later that year, he was sent to evict the Jews from the town by Czar Nicholas II of Russia for no apparent reason, a task that he reluctantly performed.
